Winter in Arizona

(View from grandparents' patio)

The kids and I headed south at the beginning of Christmas break to spend time with my mom's parents. The kids made a list of the things they wanted to do while there and they accomplished everything on their list:

They especially enjoyed being able to go Christmas shopping with their great grandparents. My grandma had a Pinkalicious birthday party for Maren with some of their friends and neighbors. I enjoyed the opportunity to play a round of golf with each of my grandparents. Still can't beat my grandpa yet but it was sure great to be out in short sleeves and shorts playing golf in December! Jonas broke my main camera lens just before we left so our pictures are sparse of our vacation.
